I have the same swap in my 02 ep3 that I did about 6 mos ago. I don't think the thermostats are different but I am running a mugen low temp thermostat in my ep3. I have noticed a difference with the mugen thermostat. As far as the fans cutting on I havent really paid attention to see if one or both of mine cut on. I'll check it out tomorrow an let you know. With the stock k24a1 thermostat I do recall my guage sitting about 4-5 notches below the 1/2 way point.
